[0027] In the existing technology, although the sheet material can be automatically fed out by the conveying mechanism, due to the different site layouts, after the sheet material is unloaded from the cold press, it needs to be conveyed from different directions to the next process for hydraulic forming. The existing pre-pressing structure is inconvenient for unloading the sheet material after pre-pressing, and it is difficult to conveniently convey the sheet material to different directions. Usually, it is necessary to manually move the sheet material from the discharge point of the cold press to the conveying mechanism in the corresponding direction for conveying.

[0028] This utility model provides a pre-compression mechanism for sheet metal, such as... Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the pre-pressing mechanism for the sheet metal includes a cold press 100, a feeding conveyor belt 200, a transfer mechanism 300, and a discharging mechanism 400. The feeding conveyor belt 200 is located at the feeding end of the cold press 100 and is used to transport the sheet metal into the cold press 100 for pre-pressing. The transfer mechanism 300 is located at the discharging end of the cold press 100 and is used to receive the sheet metal that has been pre-pressed from the cold press 100 and transfer the sheet metal to the discharging mechanism 400 for discharging.

[0029] The transfer mechanism 300 connects the cold press 100 and the unloading mechanism 400, enabling the pre-pressed sheet material to smoothly enter the unloading mechanism 400 from the cold press 100. The upper end of the unloading mechanism 400 has a first connecting part 410 and a second connecting part 420. The transfer mechanism 300 has a receiving part 310, which can be connected to either the first connecting part 410 or the second connecting part 420. When the receiving part 310 of the transfer mechanism 300 is connected to the first connecting part 410 of the unloading mechanism 400, the unloading mechanism 400 faces a first direction. When the receiving part 310 of the transfer mechanism 300 is connected to the second connecting part 420 of the unloading mechanism 400, the unloading mechanism 400 faces a second direction. The transfer mechanism 300 receives the sheet material discharged from the cold press 100 and can push the sheet material on the transfer mechanism 300 onto the unloading mechanism 400 for unloading.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the receiving portion 310 of the transfer mechanism 300 is connected to the first connecting portion 410 of the unloading mechanism 400; as Figure 4 As shown, in another embodiment, the receiving portion 310 of the transfer mechanism 300 is connected to the second connecting portion 420 of the unloading mechanism 400.

[0031] This utility model, through the arrangement of a transfer mechanism 300 and a feeding mechanism 400, and the feeding mechanism 400 having a first connecting part 410 and a second connecting part 420, and the transfer mechanism 300 having a receiving part 310, can be configured with multiple installation methods by connecting the receiving part 310 with the first connecting part 410 and the second connecting part 420. Different installation methods correspond to different feeding directions, making it suitable for use in different installation sites and meeting the feeding needs of different directions.

The transfer conveyor belt 302 is mounted on the receiving part 310 of the transfer bracket 301 and is used to receive and transport the sheet material discharged from the cold press 100; the pushing unit is configured as a pushing cylinder 303, a limiting slide rail 304, a limiting block 305, and a pushing plate 306; the pushing cylinder 303 is installed on the transfer bracket 301. At the upper end, limit slide rails 304 are provided on both sides of the upper end of the transfer bracket 301. Limit blocks 305 are slidably connected on the limit slide rails 304. The limit blocks 305 are connected to the pusher cylinder 303. The pusher cylinder 303 drives the limit blocks 305 to move on the transfer bracket 301. The limit blocks 305 are connected to the pusher plate 306, so that the pusher plate 306 moves together when the pusher cylinder 303 pushes the limit blocks 305 to move. The pusher plate 306 is set on the transfer conveyor belt 302, so that the pusher plate 306 can push the plates on the transfer conveyor belt 302.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, a position sensor 307 is installed on the transfer bracket 301. The position sensor 307 is located at the feed end of the transfer conveyor belt 302 and is used to detect the front and end of the plate material discharged from the cold press 100 entering the transfer conveyor belt 302. When the front end of the plate material is detected to have passed, the pushing unit is in a ready state. After the end of the plate material has passed, it indicates that the plate material has completely entered the transfer conveyor belt 302. The pushing unit is then activated to push the plate material on the transfer conveyor belt 302 to the unloading mechanism 400 for unloading.

[0034] Regarding the feeding mechanism 400, such as Figure 2As shown, the feeding mechanism 400 is configured as a feeding support 401, a feeding conveyor belt 402, and an inclined conveyor belt 403. The feeding support 401 is provided with a feeding conveyor belt 402 at its upper end. A first connecting part 410 and a second connecting part 420 are provided on the side of the feeding conveyor belt 402 for the receiving part 310 to be placed and connected. In other embodiments, in order to ensure the stability of the connection between the receiving part 310 and the connecting part, a limiting groove is provided on the first connecting part 410 and the second connecting part 420 for the limiting rod at the bottom of the receiving part 310 to be inserted for positioning and connection. The feeding conveyor belt 402 is provided at the upper end of the feeding support 401, and the inclined conveyor belt 403 is provided on one side of the feeding support 401. The inclined conveyor belt 403 is used to receive the sheet material on the feeding conveyor belt 402 and continue to convey it. One end of the feeding conveyor belt 402 is connected to the discharge end of the cold press 100, and the other end is connected to the inclined conveyor belt 403.

[0035] To facilitate the movement of the unloading mechanism 400 and its relocation and installation, casters 404 are installed at the bottom of the unloading bracket 401. In addition, an angle adjustment mechanism for controlling the rotation of the inclined conveyor belt 403 is provided on the unloading bracket 401 to adjust the inclination angle of the inclined conveyor belt 403 to meet the unloading requirements at different heights.

[0036] In this embodiment, the feeding conveyor belt 200, the transfer conveyor belt 302, the unloading conveyor belt 402, and the inclined conveyor belt 403 all include a conveyor frame, conveyor rollers, a conveyor belt, and a driving component. The conveyor rollers are rotatably mounted on the conveyor frame, and the conveyor belt is tensioned on the two conveyor rollers. The driving component drives the conveyor rollers to rotate, thereby driving the conveyor belt to transport materials.

[0037] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
